Telecommunications Market Reports
Romania Convergence, Broadband & Internet Market
- Overview, Statistics & Forecasts
Romania’s Internet and broadband market is experiencing strong growth, despite
the country’s low fixed-line penetration rate. Broadband services are widely
available from the cable operators as well as the fixed-line incumbent, RomTelecom,
which has made up for belatedly launched ADSL services through aggressively
pricing its services. Large LAN-based broadband services are also popular.
Triple play services have been launched by the cable operators, which pose a
significant threat to RomTelecom given the reach of their networks. A number
of satellite-based digital pay TV platforms were launched during 2005, with
one operator expanding services internationally. Digital terrestrial TV services
are still in development although an analogue switch-off date has been approved
and developments are continuing. This report provides an insight into the
country’s burgeoning Internet, broadband and convergence market, covering
the technologies, the major players and market developments, in addition to a
variety of statistics and forecasts on the future broadband penetration. See the summary and table of

Romania Key Statistics, Regulatory & Fixed Line Telecoms
Overviews
Romania’s telecommunications market is in transition, reflecting the
country’s economic aspirations. The regulatory environment has been shaped by
the country’s bid to join the European Union, resulting in a liberalised market
and plans to privatise the government’s remaining stake in the incumbent.
Alternative operators have made significant progress in the fixed-line market,
with the country’s cable operators playing a significant role. Significant
infrastructure investments have been made in the fixed-line network, spurred
by the need to offer broadband services and increase fixed-line network access.
This report provides an insight into the burgeoning telecommunications market,
covering regulatory developments, fixed-line infrastructure and offering a
variety of statistics. See the summary and table of
contents
Romania - Mobile Market - Overview & Statistics
Romania’s mobile communications market is served by three GSM and one
CDMA operator, although the market is effectively a duopoly of two GSM operators.
However, the re-emergence of the third operator looks set to inject fresh
competition into the market. Mobile data and content services are available and
the launch of 3G services by two operators has enabled the availability of
increasingly sophisticated mobile content. A beauty contest-style tender for
the country’s third and fourth 3G licences has been completed, with the CDMA
operator and a fixed-line/cable TV operator emerging as the winners. This
report provides a concise overview of Romania’s burgeoning mobile market,
covering and analysing the market and regulatory developments, as well as
profiling the major operators and offering a variety of financial and
performance statistics. See report summary and table of
